Summits on the Air (SOTA)

Summits on the Air (SOTA) W4/W8 Association

Welcome to SOTA summits of the W4 and W8 DXCC Call Areas. This site catalogs currently released peaks in the W4 area along with proposed new summits in W4 and W8. This site is not the official source of SOTA summit detail; Always refer to the released Association Reference Manuals (ARMs) on the main SOTA site as the last word on how and if a peak counts towards SOTA awards.

W4 and likely W8 are/will be broken into various associations. This web site provides a high level view of all the peaks ignoring arbitrary SOTA Association boundaries. One important purpose for this view is planning of new summits for W4 and W8 (and any other new summits). Most significant is the identification and avoidance of duplicate SOTA References along Regional, Association and DXCC Call borders.

NOTE: The W4 Area includes KY, VA, TN, NC, SC, AL, GA and FL. Of these only Virginia, North and South Carolina currently have released ARM documents. Tennessee has peaks established, but no ARM yet. The remainder await coordination.

NOTE: The W8 Area includes WV, OH and MI. None have anything released, but this site has proposed summits ready for review by a new ARM manager and the SOTA UK managers.
